Choice or Consequence

Whats important ?

Running down the road there is so much competition that one wonders "what more should I do to get past my competitor", "where would I find that magic potion that will get me past the others"? Should I run faster" ? Without doubt it would get me past the others, but unfortunately only for the time being. In a matter of time leading would be ambiguous and I would run out of steam. So whats the next move is the million dollar question which depends upon what the others opt to do, the billion dollar answer. And unfortunately you get recognition only after the mission is accomplished so the billion dollar answer would arrive only after the racers get past the finish line, like food for a dead man.

The Foundation :

Everything that stand has a feet(or some aid), the strong ones are stable, while the agile ones are expeditious. The quintessential factor that affects every game is knowing the boundaries and rules that govern the game. And the choice is always misleading whereas the consequence is the guiding star that would lead us even to our eternal goal. As my brother always says " To finish first you first have to finish". So focus on finishing, be cautious that you do not do anything that affects the balance. And strive to strike a balance between speed and stability, and hold on when things go wrong, the road seems uphill, because once you get up there you can glide down with ease to the other side.

Next Step is the Last Step :

The zeal to succeed blindfolds the human mind, only relentless practise, concentration and a clear understanding can get us close to success, again success is a journey and not a destination, its dynamic and so will be the path towards it . So with providence and precaution, focus and precision ,the journey would be rewarding despite being demanding. So concentrate on the solution rather than the problem and work towards it and get there atleast along with the others if not ahead of them.

wat u say...does appeal to me at one level but at another level it appals...but da contradiction within ur one blog itself is ironic...like life itself...if success n winning mattered most in life...thn y r most ones who are most successful, most insecure...does raise questions of importance...is it da destination or the journey tat matters...is it jst finishin...even if its first...wats da point if ur alone at that point...well jst lost my train of thght...so i guess tats abt it...

This is one hell of a thought man, the views expressed are akin to hot/cold, cool/warm, solid/liquid so on and so forth, destiny to some, luck to some, sheer effort to many, all different names attributed to the same objective. This article is paradoxically attempting to raise question, pertinent questions.

I'm yet to find any statement in this world, that cannot be contradicted.

Very lucid thoughts that provoke the mind to think. Another person's thought provoking a thoughtless mind .... hmmm

Do we all live for success ? Don't we sometimes feel we need more of life itself. Is that what we call success. Is it about Money, pride, Lust or Career, Power ? Or is it just a feeling of being accepted as having fulfilled his place in this society.

St. Augustine once said " If we don't do what we are born to do, No one else will do it". maybe we don't have to search for it. Maybe just living our lives that we live is the very purpose. but yet our heart yearns for more. That special thing that we haven't found. That extraordinary longing in our hearts, the zeal that drives us continuously to SUCEED.

Have a nice day.
